Josh Norman and Dez Bryant spent 60 minutes of Thanksgiving football jawing in each other’s faces, knocking helmets, poking each other like pre-schoolers, shouting profanity and somehow avoiding multiple personal fouls. The argument spilled over into the postgame with multiple shots through the media.

After the game, Bryant explained how he was perfectly calm. Calmer than you are, in fact. Asked about the emotion of the game, Bryant said, “I won’t say emotional on my end, I would say emotional on his end. I was perfectly fine. I was just wearing his ass out all night.”

Then, to prove it, Bryant went on Twitter and showed how he’s going to expose his counterpart. It sounds like it’ll be a multi-part series.

The best news from the whole affair: the Cowboys-Redskins rivalry, which has been dormant for years except for the occasional flare-up is back with a vengeance (with the off chance that the teams meet in the divisional playoffs — which would be just their third playoff meeting in history). I think we all can be thankful for that.
